How many carbon atoms are there in 45g of carbon?

Chemistry
1 answer:
nevsk [136]3 years ago
3 0

Answer: 2.26x 10²⁴ atoms C

Explanation: To get the number of atoms,

First we convert mass of C to moles

45g C x 1mole C / 12 g C

= 3.75 moles C

Cancel g of C

Next convert moles of C to atoms using Avogadro's Number.

3.75 moles C x 6.022x10²³ atoms C / 1 mole C

Cancel out the units of moles C.

= 2.26x 10²⁴ atoms of C

Values for the molar mass of nitrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen dioxide molecules are given in the table below. What mass of nitroge
Gnoma [55]

Answer:

A). 92.02g

Explanation:

Equation of the reaction;

N2 (g)+ 2O2(g)------> 2NO2(g)

Note that the balanced reaction equation is the first step in solving any problem on stoichiometry. Once the reaction equation is correct, the question can be easily solved.

Reaction of one mole of nitrogen gas with two moles of oxygen gas yields two moles of nitrogen dioxide.

Mass of two moles of nitrogen dioxide= 2[14 + 2(16)] = 2[14+32]= 2[46]= 92 gmol-1

Therefore; Mass of two moles of nitrogen dioxide is 92

Pavel [41]

Answer:

<em>Protons: </em>

  • Positively charged particle
  • The number of these is the atomic number
  • All atoms of a given element have the same number of these

<em>Neutrons:  </em>

  • Neutral particles  
  • Isotopes of a given element differ in the number of these
  • The mass number is the number of these added to the number of protons

Explanation:

Protons (<em>positively charged</em>), neutrons (<em>neutral</em>) and electrons (negatively charged) are smaller than an atom and they are the main subatomic particles.  The nucleus of an atom is composed of protons and neutrons, and the electrons are in the periphery at unknown pathways.

The <em>Atomic number</em> (Z) indicates the number of protons (P^{+}) in the nucleus. Every atom of an element have the <em>same atomic number</em>, thus the <em>same number of protons</em>.

The <em>mass number </em>(A) is the sum of the <em>number of protons</em>  (P^{+}) <em>and neutrons</em> (N) that are present in the nucleus: <em>A= Z + N</em>

<em>Isotopes</em> are atoms of the <em>same element </em>which nucleus have the <em>same atomic number</em> (Z), and <em>different mass number (A)</em>, it means the <em>same number of protons</em> (P^{+}) and a <em>different number of neutrons</em> (N). For example, the oxygen in its natural state is a mixture of isotopes:

99.8% atoms with A= 16, Z=8, and N=8

0.037% atoms with A=17, Z=8, and N=9

0.204% atoms with A=18, Z=8, and N=10

Hydrides are compounds made up of hydrogen and metal. Why ammonia has the highest boiling point among the hydrides of elements i
RoseWind [281]
The correct option is D.
The hydrogen atoms that are attached to the nitrogen atom in the ammonia molecule are capable of forming hydrogen bond. The hydrogen bond that exist in the ammonia molecule is the reason why it shows higher boiling point compare to the other hydrides. Hydrogen bond occur in ammonia because ammonia is one of the most electronegative elements.

There are 50 fish in the pond that have tags. You catch 25 fish, and 5 of them have tags. What is the best estimate of the numbe
sergeinik [125]

Answer: 250


Explanation:


You work this problem by using proportions.


A proportion is the equalization of two ratios.


Here you assume that the ratio of fish with tags to total fish that you catch is the same than the ratio of fish with tags to total fish in the pond.


Mathematically:

  • 5 fish with tag / 25 fish = 50 fish with tag / x
  • 5 / 25 = 50 / x

Solve for x:

  • Multiplication property of equality: x × 5 = 50 × 25
  • Division property of equality: x = 50 × 25 / 5
  • Result: 250

Why did Rutherford choose alpha particles in his experiment?
Georgia [21]
Rutherford used gold for his scattering experiment because gold is the most malleable metal and he wanted the thinnest layer as possible. The goldsheet used was around 1000 atoms thick. Therefore, Rutherford selected a Gold foil in his alpha scatttering experiment.
